EFFECTS OF EXERCISE TRAINING AND IL-6 RECEPTOR BLOCKADE ON GASTRIC EMPTYING AND GLP-1 SECRETION IN OBESE HUMANS: SECONDARY ANALYSES FROM A DOUBLE BLIND RANDOMIZED CLINICAL TRIAL

Effects of Exercise Training and IL-6 Receptor Blockade on Gastric Emptying and GLP-1 Secretion in Obese Humans: Secondary Analyses From a Double Blind Randomized Clinical Trial

BackgroundInterleukin-6 (IL-6) is released from skeletal muscle during exercise and systemic IL-6 levels therefore increase acutely in response to a single bout of exercise.We recently showed that an acute increase in IL-6 delayed gastric emptying rate and improved postprandial glycemia.Here we investigate whether Backpack repeated increases in IL-

Regularized Three-Dimensional Generative Adversarial Nets for Unsupervised Metal Artifact Reduction in Head and Neck CT Images

The HAIRCUTTING KIT reduction of metal artifacts in computed tomography (CT) images, specifically for strong artifacts generated from multiple metal objects, is a challenging issue in medical imaging research.Although there have been some studies on supervised metal artifact reduction through the learning of synthesized artifacts, it is difficult f

Shortwave infrared hyperspectral imaging as a novel method to elucidate multi-phase dolomitization, recrystallization, and cementation in carbonate sedimentary rocks

Abstract Carbonate rocks undergo low-temperature, post-depositional changes, including mineral precipitation, dissolution, or recrystallisation (diagenesis).Unravelling the sequence of these events is time-consuming, expensive, and relies on destructive analytical techniques, yet such characterization is essential to understand their post-depositio

A rare case of a concomitant inguinal and obturator hernia and their laparoscopic transabdominal repair: A case report

An obturator hernia remains a rare occurrence and accounts for less than 1% of all abdominal wall hernias.To have a concomitant presentation with a direct inguinal hernia Colorado makes this an extremely rare case report.This patient did not fit the usual epidemiological profile of an elderly female with small intestinal obstruction.This was a male
